GE Optima MR450w

Refurbished Optima MR450w Overview

The GE Optima MR450w is a 1.5T wide bore MRI with a 70 cm opening. It is GE answer to the wide bore 1.5T class and shares much of its coil and software ecosystem with the wider GE MR range.

Medical Outfitters supplies the refurbished Optima MR450w under the MO Select line, fully tested and with a warranty included.

It suits imaging centres that need wide bore patient access at 1.5T and want to stay inside the GE ecosystem for coils, service and applications training.

What MO Select Means

MO Select is the Medical Outfitters line of certified pre-owned imaging systems. A system only carries the badge after our own engineers have refurbished it and tested it against the manufacturer specification.

• Warranty included. Every MO Select system ships under warranty. It is part of the system, not an upsell.
• Serviced by MO. Our own engineers do the refurbishment and the ongoing service. We do not subcontract it.
• Fast delivery. We rig, crate and ship in house, so lead times stay short and predictable.
• Easy process. One team and one point of contact, from the first quote to the first patient scan.
• Fully refurbished and tested. Each system is stripped, renewed where needed, and tested before it leaves our facility.
• Supported where you are. We cover the United States, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean.

Optima MR450w Configuration and Specifications

The figures below are the published standard configuration for this model. They are not a substitute for the unit record.

Software level, coil or detector complement, table configuration and any installed options are confirmed per unit before we quote. Used systems ship in the configuration they were built and upgraded to, so we verify each one rather than assume.

What Is Included

Every MO Select quote states the scope in writing, so there is no guessing about what arrives on the truck.

• The refurbished system, tested against specification
• Warranty, included as standard
• Delivery, rigging and installation by our own team
• Applications handover for your staff
• Service and repairs by Medical Outfitters engineers

Quoted separately where needed: room construction and shielding, electrical supply upgrades, third party PACS work, extended service terms, and removal of an existing system.

Delivery, Installation and Service

We do this part ourselves rather than handing you to a subcontractor. That is what keeps the process easy and the delivery fast.

• Delivery and logistics
• Installation, rigging and de-installation
• Service and repairs

Coverage runs across the United States, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. We also handle cryogenics and cold storage, which matters on any superconducting magnet.

Buying a Refurbished Optima MR450w

We do not publish per system pricing, because configuration drives the number more than the model name does. Our MRI cost guide sets out current ranges, and we quote each unit individually.

You can see the rest of the range on our MRI equipment category. For regulatory background on this class of device, see the FDA guidance on MRI.

Optima MR450w Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the MR450w a wide bore system?

It uses a 70 cm bore rather than the traditional 60 cm. That extra opening is what makes larger and anxious patients easier to scan.

How does it compare to the Discovery MR750w?

The MR450w is the 1.5T wide bore and the MR750w is the 3T wide bore. The choice comes down to case mix and budget rather than one being better outright.

Is a refurbished MR450w a good first MRI?

It is a common first system for outpatient centres. It covers routine work well and the wide bore reduces the number of patients you have to turn away.

What does MO Select include on this system?

Refurbishment and testing by our engineers, warranty, delivery and installation, and ongoing service from the same team.

Where can I see typical MRI pricing?

Our MRI cost guide sets out current ranges by class. We quote each unit individually because configuration drives the number.
